Chapter 417: Chapter 170: The Fourth Life Sets Sail Again

At that moment, however, Xu Lei’s expression changed.

The voice was the same as the Fat Buddha’s from before, and the figure was his as well.

And when this Fat Buddha saw Xu Lei, his own expression changed.

“How is this possible? How are you still alive?” he said, his eyes turning cold. “I’m sure I killed you before.”

“Bodhisattva! Bodhisattva Guan Yun—” Xu Lei shouted immediately.

He was hoping Bodhisattva Guan Yun would appear.

He could see the killing intent in the Fat Buddha’s eyes.

Sure enough, the Fat Buddha’s face turned cold and he attacked without hesitation.

A gigantic palm came smashing down.

BOOM!

It slammed into Xu Lei, sending him flying and crashing against the Celestial Palace’s barrier.

His internal organs were instantly damaged, and he coughed up blood.

Having just finished Crossing the Tribulation, Xu Lei was still weak and couldn’t unleash the true combat power of the Bodhisattva Realm.

“This is just your unlucky day!”

The Fat Buddha then said coldly, “The Venerable isn’t here. Right now, I’m the one in charge!”

Then, he resumed his ferocious assault, striking with one palm after another.

The massive palms were like phantoms, bearing down like mountains.

Xu Lei resisted desperately, but in the end, he couldn’t hold on and was killed by that old bastard again.

As his vision went black, Xu Lei once again saw the Ten Thousand Lives Book. It prompted him, asking if he wanted to be reincarnated or revived.

Xu Lei lingered for a moment within the Ten Thousand Lives Book, watching the Fat Buddha outside. Seeing that Xu Lei was dead, the man came over and began to stomp viciously on his corpse.

Then he threw Xu Lei’s body down from the Celestial Palace. His hand was somehow able to pass through the Celestial Palace’s barrier.

Watching all this, Xu Lei began to analyze the situation.

‘This Fat Buddha’s status in the Celestial Palace is probably quite high.’

‘Though it should be lower than Bodhisattva Guan Yun’s.’

After that, the Fat Buddha still seemed worried.

Perhaps remembering that Xu Lei could revive, he flew down and retrieved the corpse.

By now, Xu Lei’s body was, of course, a mangled mess. Having been thrown from such a height, it had been reduced to a pile of pulp.

But the Fat Buddha remained, guarding Xu Lei’s corpse, wanting to see how he would revive. Of course, Xu Lei didn’t choose to revive. He simply watched everything from within the Ten Thousand Lives Book in silence.

Seeing no change in the corpse, the Fat Buddha threw Xu Lei’s body down again.

He then left the Celestial Palace himself, probably to go down below and observe Xu Lei’s corpse from a distance, watching to see if it would secretly revive.

He must have suspected that Xu Lei’s corpse was still conscious and knew he was watching, which was why it wasn’t reviving.

So now, he had decided to observe in secret.

Xu Lei still didn’t choose to reincarnate or revive.

‘Revival is definitely out of the question. After all, this face is now a thorn in the Fat Buddha’s side.’

‘If I revive with this face, I probably won’t have a place to stand in the Celestial Palace.’

‘After all, it seems that Fat Buddha’s status is quite high.’

Xu Lei also didn’t know what his relationship with Bodhisattva Guan Yun was.

‘If I were to secretly revive here and find Bodhisattva Guan Yun, would she protect me? It’s hard to say.’

‘If Bodhisattva Guan Yun doesn’t protect me, I’ll probably just get killed by that Fat Buddha again, wasting a life for nothing.’

So Xu Lei decided it was better to just reincarnate.

‘After I reincarnate, I’ll have a different face and grow to look completely different.’

‘When I achieve Ascension again, that Fat Buddha won’t recognize me.’

‘Then, I can hide in the shadows, learn everything about this Sun Palace, and then wait for an opportunity to brutally kill that Fat Buddha.’

After all, he had now been killed by this Fat Buddha twice in a row! Of course, Xu Lei was pissed off.

The Fat Buddha was now on Xu Lei’s hit list.

The reason Xu Lei hadn’t reincarnated immediately was that he wanted to see if anyone else would appear in the Celestial Palace, which might allow him to glean some information about it.

‘For example, might Hui Ming, Qing Lian, Zhao Xin, or Bai Ling show up? What about Bodhisattva Guan Yun?’

But Xu Lei was disappointed.

He waited for three full days, but not a single person appeared.

There was no movement in the Celestial Palace.

In any case, the area where Xu Lei was located was completely silent.

And that Fat Buddha seemed to be continuously spying on Xu Lei’s mangled corpse from the shadows, not returning to the Celestial Palace.

After killing Xu Lei, the Fat Buddha hadn’t muttered any information about the Celestial Palace to himself, leaving Xu Lei with nothing.

“I was worried before that after my Ascension, I’d be discovered by this Fat Buddha and killed. I can’t believe it actually happened.”

Xu Lei sighed. “Forget it. I’m done waiting. Time to reincarnate. After I’m reborn and achieve Ascension again, I’ll be able to understand everything.”

‘After all, I can’t move from my spot while I’m inside the Ten Thousand Lives Book.’

‘So I can’t explore the Celestial Palace.’

Therefore, Xu Lei decided to go ahead and reincarnate.

Besides, staying in the Ten Thousand Lives Book wasn’t without its energy costs.

The Ten Thousand Lives Book itself definitely required energy to function.

Usually, after three or four days, the Ten Thousand Lives Book would start urging Xu Lei to either reincarnate or revive.

So, Xu Lei didn’t wait any longer and chose to reincarnate.

The Ten Thousand Lives Book then prompted that since Xu Lei still had descendants in this world, he could begin reincarnation immediately.

Then, Xu Lei’s consciousness drifted into slumber.

When Xu Lei awoke again, he found himself in the body of a one-year-old baby boy, swaddled in blankets.

Xu Lei was stunned. ‘What’s going on? Why am I not in a womb this time?’

But the Ten Thousand Lives Book offered no explanation for this.
